The People's Voice Award-winning short film, produced in collaboration with Al Jazeera English's TV and digital correspondents, commemorated the two-year mark of 700,000 Rohingya being driven from their homes by the Myanmar military in 2017.

"Throughout my career, I have covered war and violence," said Al Jazeera English senior correspondent Mohammed Jamjoom in the film.

"But I have never heard of anything like that happening to human beings," he said, recalling his interview with Rajuma Begum, a young mother whose baby was taken from her arms and thrown into a fire before she was gang-raped by Myanmar army soldiers.

"I'm proud of our teams who have worked tirelessly to bring news of oppressed communities to our global audience," said Carlos van Meek, director of Digital Innovation and Programming.

"We especially appreciate the collaboration with our TV colleagues where the coverage of the Rohingya crisis right from the start has set a model for crisis reporting. This win is a powerful example of teams coming together to ensure ongoing coverage of an important global story."
